Chapter 110 Asking for help
Chapter 110 Asking for help
Ning Ji glanced at the woman in front of him. It was obvious that Zhao Mie wanted to use her as a bargaining chip. He looked down at Si He and saw her say, "If you, Zhao Zhaizhu, want to use her to threaten me, you're making a wrong calculation."
"Si He, you can't just stand by and watch someone die!" Si Rong suddenly came to her senses after hearing Si He's words. No matter what, following Si He is better than following these bandits!
Zhao Miele was delighted to see Si Rong's plea for help. He chuckled at Si He and said, "What are you talking about, sister-in-law? We just couldn't bear to see a beautiful woman in trouble, so we helped her. Besides, she's your sister, so we naturally wouldn't stand by and watch."
Si He smiled faintly, "A half-sister who has bullied me since childhood? That's a big worry for Village Master Zhao."
Hearing her words, Si Rong felt a chill in her heart.
Zhao Mie and others looked at Si He's expression. She really didn't look worried about Si Rong at all, and was indifferent to Si Rong's situation.
This is really disappointing, even though I had expected it.
"Cousin, let's go." After Si He finished speaking, Ning Ji rode his horse into the village.
Zhao Mie's expression gradually turned colder.
Looking at the backs of the two people, everyone had different expressions.
"Si He! You bitch, you bastard! I curse you to die a miserable death!"
When Si He heard the cursing behind her, her face turned slightly cold.
People like this are really not worth saving.
That night, she clearly had the opportunity to escape, but she still followed those bandits. Who should she blame?
Now she is asking for help with an arrogant and resentful attitude. Does she really think she is still a rich lady?
Si He is not a Bodhisattva, so she naturally won't save this troublesome thing and let it become a burden to her.
Repaying evil with kindness is not her style.
Si Rong kept cursing, but because she struggled too much, Zhao Mie's men slapped her in the face, and she finally behaved herself.
"This pair of dogs are really cold-blooded and heartless!" Xie Meng sneered.
No one else said anything. As long as there was no fighting, it was fine. If there was too much noise, it would not be good for anyone.
Now seeing Ning Ji and Si He entering the village, they also went into the village and found a house to rest.
It's getting late now, and it's better to rest in this deserted village than in the mountains.
They wanted to leave here, but the inspection outside was too strict, especially yesterday when He Biao and his team went out again, but they were unlucky and encountered officials again. Fortunately, they only suffered minor injuries, got their rewards back, and also got some information.
It is said that the war on the border is about to spread to the nearby cities, so they are waiting now, waiting for the war to break out and then they will take advantage of the chaos to escape.
They all had the same idea as Ning Ji.
The people from Taiyi Sect were so badly injured that they couldn't even deal with a few bandits, so they could only follow the people from Baishi Sect.
They were powerless to find Hu Qing and save him.
Zhao Mie and the others were also determined to follow along, and everyone had their own plans.
Si He and Ning Ji returned to the courtyard. After Ning Ji carried her down, she asked, "Cousin, do you think they will have any bad intentions?"
"Don't worry." He reached out and rubbed her head, a cold light flashing in his eyes.
"Yeah." She responded and lowered her eyes. She was afraid that she would not sleep well tonight.
Seeing her like this, Ning Ji thought she was unhappy about what happened just now, so he said: "That woman is not worth saving."
Hearing this, she looked up at him, the corners of her lips slightly raised, "Yeah, I know."
She won't relent.
Gah~Gah~
A flock of crows flew across the sky.
Zhao Mie and his men buried Wei Bao's body. They originally wanted to burn it, but they were afraid that the noise would be too loud and would attract the officials.
They didn't expect that after going around in circles, they would end up back in the deserted village.
Wei Hu looked at Wei Bao's body, his eyes full of hatred. He could only take his time to avenge his brother's death.
Most of the houses in the deserted village are quite dilapidated, and the roads are overgrown with weeds, making it difficult to clean up.
Zhao Mie and his men ordered Si Rong to clean up the house. Si Rong was reluctant, but did not dare to resist, so he could only grit his teeth and work.
A group of people settled down in the deserted village, resting, healing their wounds, and getting busy.
In the blink of an eye, night fell.
The deserted village at night is cold and gloomy.
The moonlight tonight was blocked by clouds, and the whole village was shrouded in darkness, pitch black, with only a few houses emitting dim candlelight.
After washing up, Si He sat by the window and let Ning Ji help her dry her wet long hair.
Outside the window, the moon is dark and the wind is strong, the stars are hidden, and in the darkness, danger seems to be lurking everywhere.
Tonight is more lively than usual. Even though I am far away, I can vaguely hear some people talking.
Si He withdrew her gaze, turned her head slightly, and looked at the bronze mirror on the table by the window. The quality of the mirror here was not very good, and the reflection was very blurry. She could only vaguely see Ning Ji gently wiping her hair.
At this time, after Ning Ji had almost finished wiping her, he took a comb to help her comb her hair. His movements were gentle, serious, and cautious, as if he was afraid of hurting her.
The corners of her lips lifted slightly.
Her hair is of good quality, black and smooth. When you comb it through, there are no tangles at all. It is like fine silk, making people love it.
He combed her hair one stroke at a time, controlling the strength very well, especially when combing her scalp, which made her feel very comfortable.
She closed her eyes and looked very happy.
Seeing her cute look, Ning Ji curled his lips, his eyes full of doting. He kept combing her hair slowly.
At this time, two barely audible footsteps were slowly approaching. The sound of the night wind and the shaking of the broken doors and windows nearby covered up the footsteps. Their figures appeared and disappeared in the night, step by step, lightly and tiptoeing.
Ning Ji was combing her hair when she suddenly looked out the window, her eyes slightly narrowed and the smile on her face faded a little.
The next moment, two shrill screams rang out one after another, echoing throughout the deserted village.
what! ! !
Someone's in danger outside!
Si He opened her eyes and looked in the direction of the sound, but she could not see anything because of the wall between them.
After a while, there were many footsteps and voices outside, as if they were also surprised at what had happened.
They held torches and ran towards this side quickly.
Soon, they saw two men lying outside Ning Ji and Si He's yard. They were Zhao Mie's two men!
The two men were lying on the ground, twitching all over, with ugly faces. There were many snakes wrapped around their bodies, and there were several bites on their necks, which were black in color. It was obvious that the venom was very strong!
After a while, the two stopped twitching, but in this short period of time, they died completely!
There were also many poisonous snakes crawling around them and in the corners of the walls. There was a cold light flashing in their eyes, and they were staring at the newcomers vigilantly, as if as soon as they got close, they would jump out and bite them hard!
